SS BREAST BADGE FOR SS SERVING IN POLICE

In July 1943 wear of the runic SS breast badge was extended to all full fledged SS personnel who were serving in one of the Waffen-SS units that were not entitled to wear the SS runic collar tab such as the 4.SS-Polizei-Panzer-Grenadier-Division, the 7.SS-Freiwillingen-Gebirgs-Division "Prinz Eugen", the 11.SS-Freiwillingen-Panzer-Grenadier-Division "Nordland", and the 13.Waffen-Gebirgs-Division der SS "Handschar", among others. The runic breast badge was to be worn beneath the left breast pocket on the service and field uniforms. The SS runic breast badge was worked on a police green, a field-grey and a black wool base for wear on the appropriate colored uniforms
